The

Management menu

gives you access to tasks used for managing

controller-level settings (background task rate, unit polices such as enabling
of unit write cache, and controller settings that affect all units managed by the
controller), tasks that can be scheduled (rebuild, verify, and self-test), and
maintenance of individual units. Unit configuration can also be done through
the

Management > Maintenance

page.

The

Monitor menu

gives you access to the Alarms page, the BBU page, and

the Enclosure Summary page. The

Alarms

page shows a list of alarms,

including the specific alarm message, and the exact date and time it occurred.
The

BBU

page shows the status of a Battery Backup Unit (BBU), if one is

installed, and allows you to test the battery. The

Enclosure Summary

page

provides lists the enclosures connected to the controller and lets you drill
down for more detailed status information about each.

The

3DM 2 Settings

page lets you set preferences, including email

notification for alarms, passwords, page refresh frequency, whether remote
access is permitted, and the communication port which 3DM will use for
listening.

Help

lets you access information about using 3DM. The Help is context-

sensitive, so you first see information about the page you now have in view. A
Table of Contents and Index are available to help you find other information.
